Reviews
Subject: This movie is full of bad, bad ideas
Jack Dempsey presides over a boxing match between 2 small children.
A man uses his Chevy as a fishing net.
A woman and young girl arrive at a party with a trunk full of dogs.
Also, an older couple receives a new Chevrolet simply because they put 23 good years on thier old one. I don't think that would happen today. This short is definitely of its time!

Subject: Chevrolet Motors -- Leader report
Subject: Divers! Drivers! Dempsey! Doofuses! Dredging! Dogs!
The first clip contains beautiful girls sliding off a siide connected to a... Chevrolet Automobile! Notice closely as some of the girls don't want to get TOO wet... We then follow that with an unremarkable scene of beauties diving off a car into a curiously half full pool. Make sure the roof doesnt get slippery!
The next scene features a older couple who seem to have the oldest Chevrolet on the road. The car has been humming along costing very little to repair and maintain. What do the chevrolet people do? They give them a brand new car! Why? Who knows. What do they do with the old car? That's undetermined.
Jack Dempsey referees an amateur boxing competition in the next clip. which shows young kids wailing away on each other. Surely entertaining the masses. Curiously the masses' sound level remains stagnant all throughout the clip.
A really TALL assenbly guy. In the next clip. Inspects roofs. Supposedly he's 23. He LOOKS 40. next.
In continuing their practise of showing animals needlessly suffering in cars, we get two examples of this in this film. Clip one features a novel idea of fishing. Just drive your.. Chevrolet Automobile! into the river and pick off all the smelter as you can.
The next clip features dogs. Uh oh. Once again, Dogs are mercilessly stuffed into trunks and then brought out to a tea party. This is too funny as half the kids are trying like hell to control the mutts. The final scene shows one dog being THROWN onto the table. Really, literally, You can see the hands from off camera lobbing the dog onto it. The dog rebounds off the other side. Why? Who knows.
